You bit me on the butt!

[SYWRejections]

Mom and Kid enter my line. Normal transaction, for the most part--whiny brat gets kids' toy/DVD/I forget. Of course, that just isn't enough--he needs a candy bar to go with it.

Mom: No. (A firm answer. I like this woman.)
Kid: BUT I WANT IT.
Mom: I said no. End of discussion.
*Kid walks behind her, wraps his arms around her legs. I assume he's hugging her. Suck up.*
Mom: OW!
*Kid walks over to the counter, looks up at me with angry, pouty eyes.*
Kid: I'm not very happy, I'm in big trouble.
Me: Aww, why?
Mom: You're right you're in big trouble, you BIT ME ON THE BUTT!
Me: (Don't laugh, don't laugh!)

Needless to say it had my family ROLLING after I got home.

Funny story...but man...I hope the parents have a better handle on that kid than it would appear...

Kid couldn't bite into a Butterfinger, so he bit into a butt instead.

[RealUnimportant]

Sounds like they have a good handle on the kid, tbh; Mom didn't give in, even after being bitten, and I'm sure suitable punishment would be applied later - the kid's reaction afterwards certainly implies he knew he was going to have to pay for it later.

One of my second cousins (I think that's what it is when your immediate cousins have kids?) was a BAD biter as a kid. He did it until gradeshool! Of course, being favorite and the apple of his mother's eye was the reason it went on for so long...

He was 3 when we were moving and my cousin was helping us, and my dad and uncle both warned that if he bit them, they'd bite back.

Oh man, I would've been trying so hard not to laugh at that.

Good mother though.

My oldest was pissed when his brother was a newborn and needed my attention for something. As soon as I put the baby down and picked up my oldest (around 3 at the time) he sank his teeth into my boob through my shirt and bit hard! It hurt so bad I thought he'd bitten my nipple off. I screamed (couldn't help it), handed him off to my brother-in-law and hid in my room until I was calm enough to deal with it. This was pre-autism diagnosis, but it was probably just jealousy anyway.

Other than that, I've never had a problem with either one of them biting for attention. I applaud that mother for keeping her cool. It must have been a shallow bite that didn't hurt that much. I'd have knocked him in the head.

No candy bar, and kid wouldn't be getting the toy/DVD anymore either.

My mom says I bit her. Once. She bit me back. It never happened again.

^-.-^

My niece was a bitter up until around 2 and a half or 3. She liked to kiss you then bit your lip and giggle. Her mom was firm about trying to stop it, but it wasn't sinking in. One day I was holding her hand and she tried to bite my finger. I told her flat out I was going to bite her back if she did it. She bit my finger just to bait me. Her eyes got huge when I took her finger and gently pressed me teeth into it in return and she never bit me again. The look on her face was priceless, like "You actually bit me!!!"

First Cousin, Once Removed. :P

Was the kid's name Karma, by any chance? lol

[PepperElf]

sounds like junior ended up with an even sorer butt...

[hotelslave]

I have a vague memory of being a biter myself for a short period of time. I was the middle child and by all accounts I was neglected because of it. Got mad at my younger sister and would bite her when she got any thing she wanted. How did I get over it? My grandma caught me doing this and bit me as hard as she could to see how I liked biting and told me that she would bite me every time she heard I bit. Broke me of the habit.

My #1 would nip while nursing... and look up at her mom like this:
